 GROUNDED, GUARDED, AND SENT

John 17:6-19 | Mike Prah

BIG IDEA: Jesus teaches us that faithful disciples are anchored in God's truth, sustained by God's power, and devoted to God's mission.

1. JESUS TEACHES US TO RECEIVE AND BUILD OUR LIVES UPON GOD'S REVELATION (John 17:6–10)

 "I have revealed You to those whom You gave Me out of the world." (John 17:6a, NIV)

 "Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father." (John 14:9, NIV)

 “I have revealed You to those whom You gave me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave them to Me and they have obeyed Your word.” (John 17:6, NIV)

 BLESSINGS OF ANCHORING YOUR LIFE IN GOD’S REVELATION

6 “I have revealed You to those whom You gave me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave them to Me and they have obeyed Your word. 7 Now they know that everything You have given Me comes from You. 8 For I gave them the words You gave Me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from You, and they believed that you sent Me. 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name You gave Me.” John 17:6-8, 12 (NIV) 

As we anchor our lives in God's revealed truth...

1. We discover our true identity and purpose (17:6)
2. We become less like the world and more like Christ. 17:7; 15:19)
3. We experience continual spiritual transformation 17:8a)
4. We deepen our fellowship with the Father (17:8b; 15:9-10)
5. We find stability in life's storms (17:12)

Takeaway (Point 1): The more firmly we anchor our lives in God's revelation, the more we experience confidence in our identity, clarity for life's decisions, Christlike transformation, and deeper fellowship with the Father, and stability in life's storms. 

2. JESUS TEACHES US TO DEPEND ON GOD'S POWER (John 17:11–16)

“I am coming to You now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of My joy within them” John 17:13 (NIV)

"Holy Father, protect them by the power of Your name ..." John 17:11 (NIV)

"In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." John 16:33 (NIV)

“When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you. For I am the Lord, your God.” Isaiah 43:2-3a (NLT)

“The Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one” 2 Thessalonians 3:3 (NIV)

 “I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.” Philippians 1:6 (NLT)

 Takeaway (Point 2): The more we depend on God's power, the more we experience His protecting and preserving grace, empowering us to faithfully fulfill His God-given purpose.

 3. JESUS TEACHES US TO DEVOTE OUR LIVES TO GOD'S MISSION (John 17:18)

 "As You sent Me into the world, I have sent them into the world." John 17:18 (NIV)

Takeaway (Point 3): The more we embrace Christ's mission, the more our everyday lives become opportunities to reveal His love and glorify His name.
